Vintage Peugeot fixed conversion

Good spot. Only thing is I'm rather liking the 700x28s. They close up the gaps a little with the old school geometry. I think I mentioned above I bought a pair of NOS Michelin World Tours that would have been ideal but they turned out to be more old-old-stock so I never used them in the end.

fair enough, when I get mine I'll fit and measure to get the true width and let you know. I have 28's and 25's that are actually the same width! so not always the measurement they claim

That would be really helpful, thanks. You are right - they are good looking tyres.

Yeah, I really like the tread style, very 80's. very hard to find that sort of tyre now apart from the veloflex tyres which cost a fortune.

Velobase says they are early 80's too so period correct http://www.velobase.com/ViewComponent.aspx?ID=69cae715-643c-42a1-8302-0ff97be2da6a

Looks great and coincidentally I have the same bike (well framed bike) in the shop at the moment waiting to made more female friendly for his wife: https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.455663424524637.1073741840.102154539875529&type=3

Lovely,
the colour is unusal as well.
Mine is a year or so older, not in this condition.
The frame is incredibely strong :
I started touring with far too much weight on it.
Flicking it into corners, loaded, in the alps or the Pyrenees was a test it sailed threw.
